Thanks for your reply. The code does what I require but I will be changing file.txt with different values for var1 and var2. Also, instead of
Code:
echo "var1 = " $a
echo "var2 = " $b
I will be running processes which require the variables given. This is why I was using the foreach command. I don't think I can use the code that you supplied for this purpose. Sorry if this doesn't make sense. Let me know if I need to explain it clearer,

OK, so I am extremely rusty and am just getting back to Unix after 9 years.
I'm stuck on something easy. I want to search line-by-line for a string in a file, and I want to do this to a series of files in a directory.
This works fine to do the search:

list
LIST(3) 1 LIST(3)list - Assign variables as if they were an arraySYNOPSIS
array list (mixed $var1, [mixed $...])
DESCRIPTION
Like array(3), this is not really a function, but a language construct. list(3) is used to assign a list of variables in one operation.
PARAMETERS
o $var1
- A variable.
RETURN VALUES
Returns the assigned array.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
list(3) examples
<?php
$info = array('coffee', 'brown', 'caffeine');
// Listing all the variables
list($drink, $color, $power) = $info;
echo "$drink is $color and $power makes it special.
";
// Listing some of them
list($drink, , $power) = $info;
echo "$drink has $power.
";
// Or let's skip to only the third one
list( , , $power) = $info;
echo "I need $power!
";
// list() doesn't work with strings
list($bar) = "abcde";
var_dump($bar); // NULL
?>
Example #2
An example use of list(3)
<table>
<tr>
<th>Employee name</th>
<th>Salary</th>
</tr>
<?php
$result = $pdo->query("SELECT id, name, salary FROM employees");
while (list($id, $name, $salary) = $result->fetch(PDO::FETCH_NUM)) {
echo " <tr>
" .
" <td><a href="info.php?id=$id">$name</a></td>
" .
" <td>$salary</td>
" .
" </tr>
";
}
?>
</table>
Example #3
Using nested list(3)
<?php
list($a, list($b, $c)) = array(1, array(2, 3));
var_dump($a, $b, $c);
?>
int(1)int(2)int(3)
Example #4
Using list(3) with array indices
<?php
$info = array('coffee', 'brown', 'caffeine');
list($a[0], $a[1], $a[2]) = $info;
var_dump($a);
?>
Gives the following output (note the order of the elements compared in which order they were written in the list(3) syntax):
array(3) {
[2]=>
string(8) "caffeine"
[1]=>
string(5) "brown"
[0]=>
string(6) "coffee"
}
NOTES
Warning
list(3) assigns the values starting with the right-most parameter. If you are using plain variables, you don't have to worry about
this. But if you are using arrays with indices you usually expect the order of the indices in the array the same you wrote in the
list(3) from left to right; which it isn't. It's assigned in the reverse order.
Warning
Modification of the array during list(3) execution (e.g. using list($a, $b) = $b) results in undefined behavior.
Note
list(3) only works on numerical arrays and assumes the numerical indices start at 0.
